No offense intended, but you need to also look at the fact that a LOT of people who might come here are simple home users. They have no concept of password security (at least most of them ), and therefore could learn a lot from the site referenced.
While I think a lot of the passwords listed in that site are very good for the average user, I noted some indicated that a lot of them are defaults for old programs/bios, etc...
Ok, I can accept that, but how many people really know that from so long ago? Yes, I did recognise a few defaults, but I really think that quite a number of them are pretty good for home users.
Most of them can be changed - even slightly - to provide good CompSec and still be difficult to break.
As long as you are using a combination of alpha/numeric/special characters you are practicing good computer security and making it more difficult for someone to hack into your system. Anyone think I'm wrong?
